DP TUNER HELP!! MISSING CABLE!!!

Hey Guys,
I got my F6 in the mail yesterday and I'm installing it right now but it didn't come with the cable that goes between the chip and the switch. Does anybody know if this is a readly availble cable at radio shack or something????? I did call DP but its Sunday so nobody is in right now (and I don't blame them) just wondering if somebody knows what kind of cable this is?

Thanks,

Kris

It's very odd that you didn't get the cable that goes between the chip and the switch. Do me a favor, take everything out of the box take a picture and email it to me. Diane@dp-tuner.com

Got my cable yesterday (thanks Diane) and installed it last night. Took it for a spin and everything is good. I've just got the 60 tow and 60 econo right now and I'm very happy with both. Its pretty cool when you let off of the throttle in tow mode it starts to slow you down. I guess its closing that exhaust flap and using it as a brake. I also really like how it shifts firm in the tow mode compared to the econo mode. Is that something that can be adjusted in the econo mode? What other tune do you guys recommend me getting? Now I need something to smoke the duramaxes and cummings around here.

Also on another note. Before I installed the chip I was driving it without the wg hooked up (unpluged the red hose). The max boost it had like that was 16#. When I put the chip in I reconnected the red hose so I didn't mess with his tune and it went to 18#. Does that make sense? And what should the boost really be at with these tunes?

What kind of gauge do you have?if it's a gauge you plug into the obd it will only read to 22lbs. with a 60 Econ you should see aleast 22lbs min.
